Hey, this is not intended to be a long term Skill, it's purely for demonstration purposes with the mark-ii/qa branch of things, which is why it's got a very simple self-managed GUI.

I've pushed the changes from this PR to a new feature/gui-media-service so that we can switch to it when we're ready to look at the centralized media management.
